The best restaurants in Isle of Wight South East

Lovely evening meal and great service. Fish pie, burger and everything we had was excellent and enjoyed by all of us. Would recommend.

Had bottomless brunch with the gals and Cam & Sasha were great! Made our experience so effortless and fun and they were so helpful. We’ll be back!

What an amazing tardis of a place which draws you in with its thatched roof and promise of Wight shaped scones. It has extensive seating both inside and outside with an adjacent council car park. Bit pricey to park there ☹️. Visited three times:lunch, afternoon visit and early evening meal. There is a small bar inside and this room is the lively one in terms of engaging in conversation with one of the owners or other guests. The menu is varied and everything is freshly cooked. The scones are light and fluffy!! It is very easy to eat a lot here 😀 Very easy to reach by bus and a wee walk from the station We thoroughly enjoyed visiting.

Spectacular!!! My family and I love the fantastic service and great food here. Definitely highly recommend it to everyone.

The food, the friendly service and the age old surroundings are all wonderful. Love the Castle Inn, I grew up here, lived up the road, I knew the Castle for 40 years but moved away over 20 years ago, so to meet friends and family here and soak up the atmosphere again was amazing.

Very nice and typical place, friendly staff, excellent brunch (we had omelettes, avocado toast and pancakes together), prices in line. Highly recommended!!

Visited the Smoking Lobster with friends for out of season lunch (2 or 3 course). Very friendly and attentive waitress and fast service. Friends had the bream and I had the teriyaki steak burger. Bream was OK but dry, burger was ordinary. In all a bit disappointing for a lunch costing £75 a couple at a prestigious restaurant.

Fabulous atmosphere, attentive but unobtrusive service, with amazing food and accompanying wines. Michelin quality food at very reasonable price. You know you've had a quality meal when you can recall the tastes a week later. We both had different dishes but not one disappointed. Really special!

The worst and soggiest calamari fritti I have ever had served, with overlarge salad and no dressing. Large dog carpeted the floor. Italian version of Mrs Overall waited on, in character. Huge rectangular comedy plate dwarfed the already tiny tables. My Italian relatives will not be coming here.

"Not been there since it changed hands" "It was really good but haven't been there since the old people left" was what we were told. Well, as a real fussy bugger about my food, let me tell you we're very pleased that we went to Mojacs tonight as it was fab! We had the scallops and the king prawns as starters, both were cooked to perfection. I was hesitate about the apple and parsnip puree that came with the scallops as thought it would be too sweet but not at all. We had the lamb chops and the pork belly (from the specials board) and again, they were both delicious and cooked fantastically well. Don't take my word for it, try it yourself as you will not be disappointed

Stayed at tapnall farm with large family of 20 in the mansion which is on the site of the farm and a two/3 minute walk to the cow We booked long before Xmas and booked for all of us including children for New Year’s Day Got a lovely table and the service was great The food was so good best burgers ever tasted and you could also have a selection of 4 mini burgers all with different toppings which also came with fries mouthwatering tastes The steaks were so good tender tasty and delicious The young girls who served us were so good and helpful we all came away very full We enjoyed it so much we booked for the next day We have visited here before in the summer but could not get booked in then but if fancy it might be idea to book

Right next to the ferry terminal, can stroll to it while you wait to load, pizza is fair priced and up there with the very best. Lads are lovely, service was great, chatty and funny. If I’m ever here again I know where I’m going.

I had the Liver & onions on the specials board. It came on plate with a high lip so the rich onion gravy didn’t spill. There was so much Liver & mash I struggled to finish it. The meal was amazing so I did get through it eventually. 10/10 as always at Flannagans

Not sure why this is getting such high reviews. Speaking for us 2 vegetarians firstly limited choice. But then food didn't seem to match descriptions. I had an onion squash mozzarella stack. If any mozzarella in there no sign of it. Indeed the whole stack seemed more cooked for people with no teeth. Just pap. Sauce improved it. Meant to be with hassleblad potatoes, but not like any I've know. Just a couple new potatoes baked dry in oven and sliced with an egg slice. Our other dish was meant to be a mushroom stroganoff with tagliatelle. I know a contradiction in terms. Rubbish tomato sauce over tinned mushrooms with the pasta. Sticky toffee pudding similarly badly done. Hey ho. Back to the hotel.

Really great new Winter's menu. As always the food options and quality is excellent. The staff were so friendly and attentive as usual.
